Advanced Mini Fragment Implants for Hand and Wrist Fractures by Splint Meditech

Introduction

In orthopedic surgery, significant advancements have been made in treating hand and wrist fractures, thanks to the development of mini fragment systems. Splint Meditech specializes in high-quality mini fragment implants, tailored specifically for hand and wrist fractures. These implants deliver precision, stability, and effective healing for complex fractures in these delicate areas.

What are Mini Fragment Systems?

Mini fragment systems consist of smaller orthopedic plates and screws designed for fractures in smaller bones, particularly in the hand and wrist. The compact size of these implants enables optimal adaptation to the intricate bone structures in the hand, supporting efficient healing with minimal interference.

Available Sizes

Splint Meditech offers mini fragment systems in sizes ideally suited for hand and wrist fractures:

2.0 mm

These size provide flexibility in treatment, accommodating a wide range of fracture types and ensuring precision fixation.

Applications of Mini Fragment Systems in Hand and Wrist

Mini fragment implants are primarily used in treating:

Metacarpal Fractures: Fractures in the metacarpal bones can impair hand movement significantly. Mini fragment implants offer stable fixation and facilitate faster recovery.
Phalangeal Fractures: Fractures in finger bones (phalanges) require precise fixation due to their small size. Mini fragment systems ensure secure and reliable stabilization.
Carpal Bone Fractures: The small bones in the wrist, such as the scaphoid and lunate, require specialized treatment, making mini fragment implants ideal for stable fixation.

Benefits of Splint Meditech Mini Fragment Systems

Splint Meditech designs its mini fragment systems with advanced technology, offering key advantages:

Precise Fit: The plates and screws are crafted to align closely with the anatomical contours of hand and wrist bones, ensuring optimal fixation.
Biocompatible Materials: Made from materials like titanium and stainless steel, these implants are safe and minimize the risk of allergic reactions or complications.
Minimally Invasive Surgery: With their compact design, these implants require only small incisions, reducing tissue disruption and promoting faster recovery.
Stable Fixation: The implants provide strong fixation, crucial for maintaining hand and wrist function during the healing period.

Product Range by Splint Meditech

Splint Meditech offers a comprehensive selection of mini fragment plates and screws, including:

Locking Plates: Enhance stability for complex fractures.
Non-Locking Plates: Allow flexibility in screw placement for fractures requiring less rigid fixation.
Specialized Screws: Available in 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, and 2.4 mm diameters to ensure customized fixation.

Quality and Certification

Splint Meditech ensures all products, including mini fragment systems, meet international standards. The implants are certified by regulatory bodies, including the Indian FDA and CE, with additional certifications underway, guaranteeing high-quality performance.

Innovation and Technology

Splint Meditech continues to explore new technologies like 3D printing for custom-fit implants, ensuring even the most challenging hand and wrist fractures can be treated with precision and care.
